1.5TD (Nova/Corsa 'A') - any others here?

Are there many/any of these in Finland?

It is so economical (especially with the cheap fuel here) and fairly quick for the engine size (very tunable), can easily keep up with a 1.6GTE.

My Diesel Baby doesn't look that much, but its fun to drive. I'm not sure how long she will last over here, but hopefully I can get her through the Inspection & Registration soon and keep her ticking over until I can afford something else.

So it seems like mine could be the only one (Nova/Corsa'A' 1.5TD) in Finland...

There is quite a lot of 1.7TD Corsa's in the newer shape (which IMO isn't as nice as the Type-A), but haven't seen any with a 1.5TD engine.

And mine is looking a lot better now (thanks to Julle & Jeree) - new rear arches

1.5TD was never sold here, so there are propably only a handful of those. I believe 1.5D was available, but small diesels have never been very popular here, thanks to the tax-system, so even they are extremely rare. At my work our system says (if I remember correctly) that there were less than 10 1.5D-models registered here originally, can't remember the exact figure off the top of my head.

Your car is a RHD Nova?
